Master of Laws - Competition & Regulation (LL.M.)

The professional Master's programme Competition & Regulation LL.M. is located in two growing and major legal fields, regulation, and competition law. Students also learn about the economic aspects of the legal fields which are becoming increasingly significant after the introduction of the “more economic approach” in legal theory.

The new continuing-education Master's programme resulting in an LL.M. in Competition & Regulation is intended for jurists, lawyer trainees, assessors and attorneys interested in further qualifications in the areas of competition and regulatory law. Those successfully completing the Master's programme have an opportunity to continue on to the doctoral degree.
